I’ve been pretty depressed lately and haven’t touched my planner in 5 months. I scrapped it and got a new one, and wrote this whole list down for inspiration. Thank you!!

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

I'm sorry that you have been having been feeling depressed. I hope that some of the ideas that you wrote down will work out for your new planner! :)

You always have great videos, Lauren. Thank you for doing this. You are so organized and have such pretty handwriting. It's given me so many ideas! Love that you included Oliver in the video! I would love to see you do plan with me videos because your spreads are so nice! :) ... I dye my own hair and I have a sheet in my planner to write down when I dyed my hair, what I used, etc. This keeps me on track since I do it myself. :)

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

That is a really good idea to use your planner to track that, Francesca! I will add the plan with me videos to my list of future videos to make.

Great, great video...

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

[@desemanon939]

Love it

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Thanks!

[@nanettechurch1319]

At 20:51 you show pocket pages. What size are they please and where did you buy them? Thanks

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Each pocket is about 2 1/8"x 2 1/8". The entire pocket page is about 7 1/16" x 8 7/8". I think this specific one has been discontinued because I can't find it anywhere. However, MAMBI has newer versions. For example, here is one for the mini: thehappyplanner.com/products/the-happy-planner-page-protectors-mini?_pos=1&_sid=4d07ddc10&_ss=r

[@CuteCooking]

Really, Good. Lover from Bangladesh.

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Thanks!

[@lizetteh8650]

Love this ! I kinda wish you wrote all those number points down below so I can screen shot it lol but I’ll just watch it again

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Thanks, Liz! Glad you liked it!

[@patriciabillips3697]

I'm using a notebook rather than a planner, but I am teaching science this year after many years of teaching math. I have already started a list of things that have gone well, things that need tweaked a little, and things that need to be taught differently next year.

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Great idea, Patricia! Also, I think it is really cool that you teach math and science. Those are my favorite subjects!

[@priscillathompson4813]

Great video

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Thanks, Priscilla!

[@kathyesargent9088]

❤️❤️❤️

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

🙂

[@MegaBella1985]

What do you do with your planners that are decorated so cute after your done with them?

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

At the moment I am displaying them in my craft room cabinet. Once I run out of room I will probably consolidate my favorite spreads and planner covers into just a few planners.

[@Nona0510lary]

I really enjoyed this video it was very informative and had a lot of great ideas the only problem is when I was looking through it and I actually wrote down every single one so that I can remember and set out ideas and you’re missing number 59

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Thank you, Tara! I'm sorry that I'm missing number 59.

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

I found the missing 100th idea. I just realized that I said "movies you want to watch/ movie release dates" audibly in the video (18:49), but didn't include it in the on-screen text of the 100 ideas, so that's why the count was off. Sorry about that!

[@kimberlyc6418]

Pain tracker

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

💖Thank you!

[@stellarawakening9734]

Do you laminate your pages or is that a clear pocket insert??

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

Are you referring to the routines tracker? If so, that is a clear pocket insert.

[@kisabariscak9651]

# 59?!? Did I miss it? I was taking notes and don’t have #59😬😬😬

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

I said "movies you want to watch/ movie release dates" audibly in the video (18:49), but forgot to include it in the on-screen text of the 100 ideas, so that's why the count was off. Sorry about that!
